Clock Removal

Posted on Dec 20, 2018

Step one in taking down a street clock: place straps around the top. Using chains, secure straps to a hook (or something) behind the scoop of the big truck. Using torch, cut base of post armature away from concrete.

Step two in removing clock: after lifting, lower gently to the street. Again, using torch, remove the upright armature from the top, pulling gently.

And step 3: Gently lower the top part onto the waiting trailer. Ever so carefully, gradually lay it on its side in the trailer. Secure it with straps and take it to the workshop.

Bye-bye, old girl. See you in 9-12 months, all shiny and new.

Pendant Winner!

Posted on Dec 12, 2018

We had the drawing for the diamond pendant from Mills Jewelers at our holiday party on Wednesday evening, 12/12. The winner was Marlana Rice, from Clarence. Rotarian Cyndy Cotten delivered the pendant to Marlana Saturday morning, 12/15--and Marlana is obviously a very happy winner!

"This Close" to Ending Polio

Posted on Nov 06, 2018

At our Club Assembly Meeting last Tuesday Aaron Carlson spoke to his fellow members about Rotary International's efforts to eradicate polio. Since 1988, we’ve seen a worldwide reduction in polio cases of 99.9%. Last year we only saw wild polio cases in three countries. This month's Happy Dollars and fines will be donated to the Rotary Foundation for this cause. The Bill and Melinda Gates foundation is matching any donations 2 to 1.

We are "this close" to the end of polio, as this picture of our club suggests. You can donate and learn more about the cause here: https://www.endpolio.org/

EarlyAct Club

We are thrilled to announce that we have started an EarlyAct Club at DeSales Catholic School! This service club for 4th and 5th grade students sponsored by the Rotary Club of Lockport will share Rotary values and instill the importance of service above self with these enthusiastic students!
